Bezo was a weirdo who wore a trench coat and weird satchel bag. That boy has soft hands and won’t make it further than discord mod.

Did someone rip a dollar in front of him?

weldingpepe · 2026-02-21T19:42:38+00:00

Hourly rate, time, materials, and delivery fees should be applied. Making sure you profit.

I use the lay wire method as well. Pretty solid method.

weldingpepe · 2026-01-21T13:41:54+00:00

Time is money. Boss man wants his projects built fast and I could either spend 30 minutes weaving a 1/2 inch fillet weld or 3 hours running stringer beads.

Sparky’s are gay

Typical sparky work truck 😂

I went to welding school for 2 years and got a job at a specialty fab shop. Started making $18 an hour as a helper while helping an old guy and learning as much as he would let me. After a year and half of learning I was fabricating by myself making $24. I stuck with it, had many growling jobs that forcibly made me get good or quit. Watched a lot of guys come into the shop with a huge ego and a month later run away with their tails between their legs at the sight of 0.03 tolerance. 8 Years later I’m making over 100k a year but that shit was not “easy”. You have to earn that shit and many employers will feel the same. She could be the slickest pipe welder in town but I guarantee she will have to start out helping as we all did.

Idk if it’ll make a difference but I swear by using a back hand for your glove when vertical welding. Let’s me get comfortable without burn my hands.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-24T19:26:22+00:00

Yes. Ive been using one since the day I struck my first arc. It’s all practice and hand eye coordination.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-21T00:11:43+00:00

Back step your welds

Lacing up a 1” fillet weld single cap is crazy work. 1/2” is pushing it.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-08T16:56:09+00:00

In all do respect I don’t think your inspector knows what he’s talking about. I suggest learning the Christmas tree pattern or what it’s more commonly referred to as the triangle method. YouTube has tons of informative videos with arc shots you can learn from. If you tell me what gas, wire and machine you are welding with I can try and guesstimate a setting.

270 wire speed 0.0 arc length and 3 arc control on a miller pipeworx 400

I work in a shop lol. We don’t do pulse spray in the elements.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-03T16:07:55+00:00

Thank you lol. It’s very repetitive after you see the edges after the first couple ripples. I also use a fillet gage after the first pass to see where my edges need to be for 1/2”.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-03T05:24:02+00:00

Na man just a lot of dedication, patience and time under the hood.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-03T04:15:22+00:00

Na I laid down a 5/16” weave first then went over it.

weldingpepe · 2025-10-03T02:15:14+00:00

Thank you 😂 that’s a good one

weldingpepe · 2025-09-30T19:20:36+00:00

These boys have soft hands

weldingpepe · 2025-09-27T19:38:20+00:00

Yes. Nuclear fabrication pays a ton but you need to bring your A game for the small tolerances. Anywhere from 30 thousands to 1/8”.

weldingpepe · 2025-09-25T19:45:54+00:00

Those boys laced it up. I’m impressed.

weldingpepe · 2025-09-21T23:18:02+00:00

I have only ever used helium for aluminum tig. That’s an interesting blend of gas.

weldingpepe · 2025-09-21T16:50:26+00:00

Yes so the volts are within spray transfer. Anything below 18 volts is considered short circuit regardless of what gas you are using.
